I love to see the MLS passion pouring in from these new ports of call. Devoted fans from
Toronto, Portland, Vancouver, Seattle and, going a little further back, Salt Lake City, have done
wonders to energize Major League Soccer, now going into its 17th season.
And plenty of new fans from older markets are adding more air to the MLS baloon, too.
Even without the away Olympiakos fans barred from Sunday's Athens derby against despised rivals
Panathinaikos due to league restrictions, there was still enough violence and explosions to get the
match abandoned.
From Reuters:
The start of the second half was delayed by 45 minutes as fans pelted police with flares,
molotovs and missiles and was subsequently abandoned altogether with nine minutes remaining with
Olympiakos 1-0 ahead through Djamel Abdoun's 51st-minute goal.

On Sunday, January 22, 2012, Manchester United will take the pitch against Arsenal at the
Emirates. Cognizant of the simple fact that Manchester United handed Arsenal an 8-2 loss that is
counted amongst the very worst in a period of 100 years, no one is giving much reason to believe
that the Gunners have a chance against the Red Devils.
There have been many discussions about who should be the main back up to Wojciech Szczesny in the
